Chapter 351 The Emperor's Will is Here, Kneel and Receive
You can hear a pin drop in the Golden Throne Hall.
Not only the Queen Mother was frightened by Xiao Chengjin.
The ministers were also frightened by Xiao Chengjin at this moment.
They thought to themselves that this was not good, and that the gentleman was angry.
It was also the first time that Jiang Ruo saw Xiao Chengjin angry, and she couldn't help swallowing.
She thought secretly in her heart: It can be quite scary when he gets angry.
Jiang Ruo stepped forward and tugged at the corner of Xiao Chengjin's clothes, whispering, "Xiao Chengjin, don't be angry. You'll get sick from being angry... They're so proud."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chengjin restrained his expression and retreated to Jiang Ruo's side, "Okay, I'm not angry."
The little phoenix blinked and spat at the queen mother, "Ugh, if you dare to mess with my sister again, I'll reward you with an invincible flame."
After the little phoenix finished speaking, flames came out of its mouth, which was quite threatening.
Look how angry that bastard is.
Woohoo, the look of that dog man just now... was so scary.
Xiao Junze narrowed his eyes dangerously, looked at Xiao Chengjin, Jiang Ruo, Xiao Fenghuang... and then clenched his fists.
You, you guys have challenged my authority again and again. Are you treating me as if I don't exist?
When the queen saw the frightened queen mother, a calculating look flashed in her eyes.
She walked over quickly, helped the Queen Mother up, and said in a worried tone, "Mother, are you okay?"
"Don't be afraid, the Emperor is here!"
The bigger the conflict, the better.
At this time, the mother and son just fanned the flames, adding fuel to the fire and intensifying the conflict...
Xiao Mocheng certainly understood what the Queen meant.
He glanced at the gloomy Xiao Junze and said with deep sorrow, "Father, I beg you to severely punish these shameless villains who are plotting to usurp the throne."
"They're really going too far."
Xiao Junze understood the intentions of the mother and son.
He looked coldly at Xiao Mocheng who was kneeling beside his legs, and said in a cold voice: "I am the king of a country, I don't need you to teach me how to do things."
Xiao Mocheng naturally understood what Xiao Junze meant.
His expression changed, and he kowtowed quickly, saying, "Father, please forgive me. I have overstepped my bounds."
Xiao Junze snorted coldly and stood up with the help of Manager Ji.
"Get up!" Xiao Junze's voice was cold.
"Thank you, father." Xiao Mocheng stood up and took a few steps back in panic.
Oh no, it seems my father has seen through my intention.
Ministers: Is this... a feud between father and son?
Your Highness, I wish you good luck!
By this time, the Queen Mother had come to her senses.
She looked at the familiar phoenix-patterned jade bracelet on Jiang Ruo's wrist and murmured to herself, "Blood jade phoenix-patterned jade bracelet..."
The next moment, the Queen Mother's expression became a little crazy.
She pointed at the jade bracelet on Jiang Ruo's wrist and shouted ferociously, "Jiang Ruo, why is this phoenix-patterned jade bracelet in your hand?"
"This belongs to Aijia."
Jiang Ruo: "..."
Are you a robber?
It still belongs to you, how ridiculous!
The Queen Mother looked at the jade bracelet so close to her and fell into memories of the past.
This jade bracelet with phoenix pattern is her favorite one.
She asked the late emperor for it many times, both openly and secretly, but the late emperor refused to give it to her.
It really proves the saying that the more you can't get, the more you want it.
This jade bracelet has become a source of worry for her...
Not only the Queen Mother was thinking about this jade bracelet, but even the Queen's eyes flashed with a hint of fanaticism when she saw the jade bracelet.
It turned out that the late emperor gave this jade bracelet to Imperial Noble Consort Xi.
Haha, this mother and son are really spoiled...
Jiang Ruo raised her wrist, presenting the jade bracelet to everyone's sight.
She looked at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in front of her and asked seriously, "Open your eyes and take a good look. Is it yours?"
"Oh, by the way, let me tell you, this is a gift from my husband."
"This is my family's heirloom...it means a lot."
Xiao Chengjin looked at Jiang Ruo with a doting look, and smiled unconsciously.
When the Queen Mother heard Jiang Ruo's boastful tone, she felt a black screen before her eyes.
Nanny Xia looked at the shaky Empress Dowager and quickly supported her. "Empress Dowager, what's wrong with you?"
The queen withdrew her thoughts and pretended to support the empress dowager.
"Mother, are you feeling unwell?"
"I will have someone send you back to Shoukang Palace right away."
The Queen Mother pushed the Queen away and forced herself to cheer up.
She looked at Xiao Chengjin and Jiang Ruo in front of her with an embarrassed look on her face, and said bitterly: "I am putting my words here today. As long as you hand over the jade bracelet, the Dragon Soul Sword and the Yu Family Army."
"Your actions of trespassing into the palace with the intention of treason will be forgiven."
"Otherwise, none of you will be able to leave the palace alive."
Xiao Junze naturally didn't care about the jade bracelet, but stared at the Dragon Soul Sword in Xiao Chengjin's hand.
After hearing the Queen Mother's words, he closed his eyes and tried to calm himself down.
After calming down for a moment, Xiao Junze said, "Xiao Chengjin, as long as you hand over the Dragon Soul Sword, I will immediately restore your princely title."
"And Prince An's Mansion, I will give it to you again."
As soon as the words fell, the little phoenix's laughter came from above...
"Haha...you are indeed mother and son, both overestimating their own abilities and having no sense of shame."
"Why should I give you other people's things?"
Xiao Junze raised his eyes to look at Little Phoenix and roared angrily, "Where is the archer?"
"Shoot this phoenix to death for me. Yes, and Xiao Chengjin and his wife as well. I want to see them die from thousands of arrows piercing their hearts."
Throughout the dynasties, the struggle for the throne has always been a winner-takes-all situation.
So what about the Dragon Soul Sword?
He is the king of a country, he doesn't care...
Upon hearing this, the little phoenix howled, "Dog Emperor, you have such a cruel heart."
"Those who are not involved in this matter, please retreat quickly and be careful not to get hurt by mistake," said the little phoenix, and then entered combat mode.
After hearing what Xiao Fenghuang said, all the ministers subconsciously took a few steps back.
The archers heard Xiao Junze's order and quickly entered the Golden Palace.
Xiao Chengjin glanced at the archers and slowly raised the Dragon Soul Sword in his hand, "Who dares to act rashly?"
All the ministers and archers knelt down after looking at the Dragon Soul Sword.
Ever since the Queen Mother entered the Golden Palace, Fu Yunheng has been standing outside observing the situation inside...
Looking at the behavior of the mother and son, he instantly understood the late emperor's painstaking efforts.
The edict in his hand was made by the late emperor when he knew that he had not much time left. He secretly summoned him into the palace at night and made it in front of him.
At that time, he was a little confused, but now he understands...
Fu Yunheng withdrew his thoughts and slowly walked into the Golden Palace.
At this moment, Xiao Junze snatched the bow and arrow from the archer kneeling beside him with a look of anger.
"How dare you disobey my orders?"
"Hurry up and do it..."
Fu Yunheng looked at the out-of-control Xiao Junze and shook his head helplessly.
He took out the will from his sleeve and said in a sonorous voice: "Here is the will of the late emperor. Kneel down and accept it!"
Fu Yunheng's voice echoed in the Golden Palace.
When the Queen Mother and others heard the word "last will", they were shocked and subconsciously knelt on the ground.
Everyone had only one thought in their mind: It turns out that there really was a will.
Lord Fu hid it so well!
Xiao Chengjin and Jiang Ruo looked at each other and knelt on the ground.
Sheng Yunshao, who was sitting on the side, looked at the will and touched his chin.
Alas, do I have to kneel down too?
Princess An Ran looked at Sheng Yunshao, who had a troubled expression on his face, and whispered, "Kneel down!"
"I don't want to kneel."
Princess An Ran curled her lips, "Just this once."
Sheng Yunshao decided to quit while he was ahead, "Alright then!"
He secretly took Princess Anran's hand and knelt on the ground.
Xiao Junze looked at Fu Yunheng at the door of the palace, and the bow and arrow in his hand slipped to the ground.
His gaze slowly shifted to the bright yellow scroll of will...
It turns out...the will is in your hands.
Fu Yunheng looked at Xiao Junze, who looked stunned, and sighed slightly.
I have hinted to you long ago, why can't you tolerate that gentleman...
"This is the late emperor's last will. Kneel down and receive it." Fu Yunheng couldn't help but remind him.
Xiao Junze suddenly came back to his senses. He shouted unwillingly, "Who can prove that the will in your hand is authentic?"
"Your Majesty, the late emperor's handwriting cannot be fake. Would you like to take a look?" Fu Yunheng said as he took a few steps forward.
He slowly opened the scroll and presented the contents of the will to Xiao Junze.
Xiao Junze walked forward and looked at the familiar handwriting and content of the will.
The next moment, he seemed to have lost all his strength and slowly knelt on the ground.
It turned out that he wanted to secure the throne and could not murder Xiao Chengjin or do anything that would harm the Dayan Dynasty...
After Xiao Junze knelt on the ground, everyone shouted in unison: "Your sons and concubines receive your orders!"
"Your Highness, we are here to receive your order!"
Fu Yunheng looked at the will in his hand, the scene of the late emperor issuing the will lingering in his mind.
He looked at the people kneeling on the ground and read out the will with a solemn expression.
"The late emperor's will, carried out in compliance with the will of Heaven, declares: I know my time is short, and Prince An is young, so I can no longer protect him. I therefore draft this decree."
"When I die, the throne will be inherited by Crown Prince Xiao Junze."
"Xiao Junze must not do anything to harm my younger brother."
"Xiao Junze must not do anything that would harm the country."
"If either of these two offenses is committed, Xiao Junze shall abdicate and Xiao Chengjin shall inherit the throne. I decree it!"
Everyone shouted loudly: "Long live our emperor!"
After hearing the contents of the imperial edict, the empress dowager fainted on the ground.
Xiao Junze and his son knelt on the ground, their faces pale.
The Dragon Soul Sword, the Yu Family Army, and the will...
Late Emperor, you have really put a lot of effort into Xiao Chengjin!
